Is there grace in space -- Misunderstanding truth -- Understanding the universe and scripture -- What grace and space cannot tell us -- The fraud of scientism -- An illusion of conflict -- Discerning the truth -- The two cathedrals -- A moon of glass from Murano, Venice -- A troubled dinner in Tuscany -- Winning back trust : astronomy and the Vatican -- Grace in the life of Blaise Pascal -- Grace alongside a telescope in South Africa.
